Inspiration...Button-down Button Shirt

 Here is a basic shirt that can be worn on a daily basis:


This is the Button-Down Stretch Cotton Shirt by Lafayette 148 New York. Price tag: $498.00.  Details:  notched lapel, button front, short sleeves, button cuffs, shirttail hem, relaxed fit, cotton/nylon/polyamide/elastane blend. 

See what I mean about this being a classic, every day type of shirt.  I do like the combination of white shirt with khaki pants.  Here is my pattern suggestion:


This is the Liesl & Co Camp Shirt + Dress pattern.  It is available either pattern or pdf.  The only change I can see is that the short sleeves of the pattern have a rolled cuff instead of a button cuff.  Only you can decide if the button cuff on the short sleeve is something that you want.   Of course, with the pattern you get the bonus of having the dress as well.  It is definitely a fit once make many times sort of pattern.  Hope you are inspired to create something wonderful.

Happy Stitching!
